So, I was appraoached by Keith, the Custodian at the Y, this morning. He said, "Hey, K - I just found the strangest thing. I was cleaning the showers and I found a bottle of Wesson oil that was a quarter full. What the heck would anyone be doing with that in the shower?" I gave him a plausible answer, but it wasn't the first thing that popped in my head. What explanation do you have for it being there?

    I'm pretty sure that the garbage disposal in the drain took care of it.

    "HAIR MOISTURIZER
    You can use vegetable oil as a deep conditioning treatment. Just take about half a cup of oil and warm it at 50% power in the microwave until it's just above room temperature. Massage the vegetable oil into your hair, shampoo and then rinse."

    But I copied and pasted that from the Huffington post so...

    In some cultures oil is used as a kind of soap (dirt binds to the oil & is wiped off) and in the west used as skin mosturizer - heavier than lotion.., lighter than vaseline.

    It was for putting the oil on the skin so that one doesn't get the hose.

    He wanted to make some fried catfish with you.

    With me as in, inviting me to help him, or as in I would be the catfish?

    I googled "Wesson Oil in Shower" and the results were low and filled with mostly exactly what you think :grumble: but there was this and well I suppose it's possible it's the "wacky use #5" http://www.wackyuses.com/wesson.html
